Who would raise a villain as a wife?

He Yunjing replied quickly and took Ye Li's phone to send a message to the company's agent, asking them to check Liu Xi's situation and see if they could poach him.

He got Liu Xi's information from the system. He had acting skills and good looks, but he had no background, so he was suitable for recruitment.

After applying the medicine, the director and Huo Zihao also came back, but both of them looked unhappy. The director didn't say much, but clapped his hands and asked the staff to continue recording.

He Yunjing also picked up the camera again and followed Ye Li. At this moment, they were spreading powder outside to repel insects and snakes, so there was no need to pick vegetables. Ye Li went into the kitchen to help wash vegetables and do some simple things.

He really can't cook, and neither can anyone else. Some of them can help for the show effect, but some don't even come in.

But Liu Xi's hand was injured and the wound could not be exposed to water. After all the preparations were done, Liu Xi was still the one who cooked.

As soon as the dishes were served, Huo Zihao took the lead in eating and even complained that the dishes were not tasty.

Ye Li heard it at the kitchen door. He looked at Liu Xi who was still cooking. The discriminatory treatment in the entertainment industry is really everywhere.

He glanced at He Yunjing behind the lens with suspicion. Would he really not be scolded for doing this?

He Yunjing gave Ye Li an indifferent expression. Who cares what others do? The director must have a plan behind shooting this way.

Sure enough, after Liu Xi finished making the last dish, he sat next to Huo Zihao with mixed emotions, and picked up food for Huo Zihao with a flattering look on his face. He was not embarrassed when Huo Zihao refused.

Ye Li was speechless and could only concentrate on eating. The food was indeed not as delicious as what He Yunjing cooked, but it was not bad either.

But before he could finish eating, Huo Zihao threw down his chopsticks, pushed Liu Xi away and turned away, with a very sour face and a look of impatience at being pestered.

He Yunjing probably understood that this was to create a persona for Huo Zihao that of an honest boy, a person with a true personality in the entertainment industry who was not afraid of offending people, did not engage in hype, and kept himself clean.

Liu Xi had to be dragged into the fight, otherwise Huo Zihao would have been scolded to death.

Ye Li also looked puzzled. He looked up at Liu Xi who was forcing a smile. He felt as if the whole show was using Liu Xi as a gimmick. Although they knew that Liu Xi was just a character setting and a script, the other guests all showed expressions of disgust towards Liu Xi.

Ye Li had no appetite at all. He put down his chopsticks and sat there without waiting. He waited until everyone had eaten before he stood up and quietly cleaned up the dishes. Except for Liu Xi, everyone else left. Only Mu Chen walked a few steps and stopped where he hesitated for a few seconds before turning back to help clean up.

Mu Chen has some popularity, but he is neither an Alpha nor an Omega, just an ordinary Beta. He has good looks and some talent, but he cannot make it in the entertainment industry and can only be a foil.

He didn't want to offend anyone, but Liu Xi looked really pitiful, and since Ye Li took the initiative to help, he just followed suit. If he was going to be scolded, he would just be scolded together.

As expected, this caused the entire live broadcast room to be filled with condemnations of Liu Xi, and even Ye Li and Mu Chen were attacked, but not as seriously.

He Yunjing raised his eyebrows after listening to the system's report. Consolidating popularity is not an easy task and it requires slow progress.

After they finished cleaning up and took a short rest, the afternoon activities began. Now that the weather was hot, the program group's task was to form teams to go fishing in the river, exchange the fish they caught with nearby villagers for tonight's ingredients, and cook in groups.

This time there was no drawing of lots, but rather free team formation. Liu Xi once again followed the script and chose Huo Zihao first, but was unsurprisingly rejected.

Huo Zihao chose another female Omega and then invited Ye Li, saying that he was an Alpha and could protect them.

Ye Li was a little confused. He had He Yunjing to protect him, so what did he need Huo Zihao to do?

Ye Li smiled and said, "It's not fair for you to lead two Omegas by yourself, and I can't cook, so I'd better follow Liu Xi's team."

Ye Li ignored Huo Zihao's ugly expression and stood next to Liu Xi. He didn't want to go hungry.

He Yunjing almost laughed when he saw Ye Li's choice. Ye Li knew he would be scolded but he still made this choice. He was a bit rebellious.

Ye Li was also very open-minded. He had the capital now, and with He Yunjing around, he was not afraid.

Huo Zihao's face darkened immediately after being rejected. He turned around and invited Mu Chen. He didn't want another Alpha to steal his limelight.

Mu Chen was a little embarrassed. He didn't want to be on the same team with Huo Zihao, but he couldn't refuse. He could only repeat Ye Li's words, "I can't cook either. What are we having for dinner?"

The hidden meaning was that they wanted to choose Liu Xi. The scene suddenly became awkward. Liu Xi was so nervous that he wanted to disappear on the spot. Why didn't they follow the script?

Seeing the out-of-control guests, the director immediately came forward to smooth things over as he instructed. He simply divided Ye Li, Mu Chen and Liu Xi into one team, and Huo Zihao and the other two into one team, and they set off to the river together.

It was not far away, and the two teams arrived quickly after setting out on foot. The river was not deep and the water was very clear, and you could see the fish swimming underwater at a glance.

But the program crew did not prepare any tools and let them figure it out on their own, so two people went down directly from Huo Zihao's side.

Mu Chen also lifted up his trouser legs and prepared to go down, but Ye Li pulled him back, "You can't catch me like this."

"What should I do?"

Ye Li squatted down and drew a picture on the stone slab with small stones. He then built a shallow water area with stones downstream and drove the fish in so that they could be easily caught.

Mu Chen's eyes lit up instantly and he immediately went into the water to do it. Liu Xi also actively went to help.

Ye Li did not follow them. He said hello to the two of them and turned into the woods.

He Yunjing asked him, "What are you doing in the woods?"

"The production crew didn't give us a bucket, so we can't hold the fish. If they're strung together and die, they'll become stale." Ye Li explained and went into the woods to start collecting vines.

When he was a child, he lived in the countryside and played with many things with his friends. It was not difficult to weave a small basket with vines.

Ye Li finished collecting the leaves quickly and sat down to start weaving the basket. Ye Li was very fast and finished it in about an hour. He then picked some large leaves to pad the basket. Although it still leaked, it was almost enough for him to go back.

By the time they finished their work and returned, Mu Chen and Liu Xi had already prepared a fish pond with quite a few fish in it. The two Alphas from the other team worked for a long time but only caught a few, which were caught by the female Omega and pierced by tree branches, making them dead.

Ye Li took the basket into the water, filled it with water, caught a few big fish, and then set off back.

On the way, Mu Chen walked very fast with the basket in his arms, fearing that the fish would die of thirst. Ye Li and Liu Xi chased him frantically from behind. They arrived at the first house and exchanged a fish for some vegetables, and also borrowed a bucket.

All the fish were put into buckets, and Ye Li put vegetables in baskets. Then they went to the next house without stopping. In the end, they exchanged five kilograms of rice, some fruits and vegetables, one kilogram of meat, and finally there was a fish left, which was enough for dinner for the three of them.
